A Survey of UML Models to XML Schemas Transformations
نویسندگان
چکیده
UML is being increasing used for the analysis and design of Web Information Systems. At the same time, many XML–based languages are cornerstones in the development of this kind of system. As a consequence of the predominance of these languages, there are many works in the literature devoted to exploring the relationships between UML and XML. In this paper we present a survey of current approaches to the transformation of UML models into XML schemas. The study is focused on the case of transformation of UML class diagrams to XML schemas, since we have not found any proposal regarding other kinds of UML diagrams.

Representing XML Schema in UML - An UML Profile for XML Schema
There is a need to integrate XML schemas, i.e., schemas written in XML Schema, into UML-based software development processes. Not only the production of XML schemas out of UML models is required, but even more the integration of given XML schemas as input into the development process. In the model driven architecture, a two step integration is assumed, comprising a platform specific model and a...
متن کاملExperiments With XMI Based Transformations of Software Models
The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) and its related technologies provide a promising tool for the implementation of transformations of UML models, not only for research prototypes but also for the interaction of different commercial CASE tools. We report on our experiments with XML query and transformation languages in the context of object-oriented software development. Especially we use the ...
متن کاملSemantic Models for XML Schema with UML Tooling
Design and use of XML Schemas are essential tasks in the software engineering process for many systems, but duplication and different naming and design rules in these schemas are major roadblocks for systems integration. An ontology-driven design approach is described that uses semantic models during the creation and management of XML schema vocabularies. UML models are used for model-driven de...

The health sector uses clinical guidelines as instruments for helping decision making. We are interested in the development of a ubiquitous decision support system (UDSS) for clinical guidelines in order to help the medical staff in their decisions and in order to record a trace of the application of the guidelines. For the development of such a system in a Model–Driven Development (MDD) settin...
متن کاملGraphical Representation of XML Schema
XML is becoming the de-facto standard for exchanging information in distributed applications and services. This has resulted in the development of a large number of XML documents with their associated schemas, such as DTD and XML Schema. A major challenge in using XML Schema is the difficulty in reading and understanding even a relatively small XML Schema because of its textual nature and its X...
